I wasn't kidding

In addition to my huge luggage that I lugged from Malaysia, I brought with me a box.

Christmas came early!
Milan airport insisted that I wrap the box up during the transit flight. For that, they charged me 9 Euroes for it. Just to wrap in green plastic and stick a cheapo TrueStar sticker on it! And all because I told them it contained food items. (Malaysia didn't even care)

To everyone back in Malaysia whom I told that I would probably be missing Malaysian spices, I wasn't kidding on bringing some safety precautions.

Oh praise the Lord! Christmas DID come early!
That's one box of some of my favourite unhealthy food items. The Italy-Malaysians eyes lit up when I opened the box of wonders. The spices we got from the Arab shops here in Italy still pale in comparison to some of ours.

So for that, we cooked another dinner. Its cheaper than eating outside after all. I let them cook while I wash.

Our potion of life

And voila! The magic was done. We had for dinner ;


Some seriously spicy tom yum soup!


Fried fan mushrooms


And some freshly cooked assorted vegetables with prawns


Albeit the spiced up tongue, we could not have slept better that night.
